A little, thanks. Doesn't look like I can be as lazy as I hoped, and
that 30+ lines of SOAP is wasted on me, all I'm after is "pass" or
"fail". Such a result will be enough for the simple indicator. I
suppose there's always XPath (or regexp ;-)
I imagine there are timeline-based QA uses for a description of the
problem in a machine-readable form, but what I personally need if the
response is in the negative is help to fix the problem asap. A link to
human-readable information on the nature of the error would suffice
(i.e. the usual check URI, which probably wouldn't change over time).
Cheers,
Danny.
